Architecture Styles Model Project

In this project we picked an architectual style, like cubism or greek revival, and made a model of it. I chose the style shed and I made a model of it using cardboard and white foam.

I learned while buiilding my model, that is hard to build a model design of a house since for it to look good you need precise cuts and that it is actually quite diffucult to build a model of a house. I enjoyed building the model of the house though, I found it really fun to see it go from nothing and assemble it into something cool including your own creativity. I disliked how hard it was to make really exact cuts with the knives we had.
If I could do it differently I would make it much much smaller.
